2012 Grand Slam Challenge: The PGA Championship

It's time for the fourth and final event of the 2012 IMS Grand Slam Challenge. The PGA Championship will be held August 9-12 at the Ocean Course in Kiawah, SC. Same rules as usual. Here are the basics: Pick six of the golfers from the list below (note that this list is the current field according to Yahoo -- scratches and additions may occur, so make sure that your entry is not affected before the deadline). Points must add up to at 400 or higher. Scoring is determined by the best four of your selections who make the cut. Top 20 plus ties receive Grand Slam points. Ties for first place only will be broken by highest point total (of the six selections).
Enter your selections in a post no later than 6:00 AM EDT on Thursday morning. Entries or changes made after the deadline will not be accepted. Enter your golfers' names exactly as they are entered below. This simple task makes the compilation of the spreadsheet much easier.
If you change your entry, please note in a new post that you are doing so and then list your new entry. Preferably, also edit your previous entry and blank it out. I'll let you know in the thread and/or via PM if you need to change your entry for any reason (not enough points, invalid golfers, etc.) provided that the entry is made prior to the deadline stated above. Please note for others and myself if any of the golfers on the list have withdrawn.
Here is an example of a proper entry:
Peter Hanson
Bill Haas
Brandt Snedeker
Matteo Manassero
Ben Curtis
Fredrik Jacobson
gw67 is the reigning Open champion, ConGOTERPS is the reigning Grand Slam Challenge champion and feartheturtle02 is the current 2012 leader. Good luck to all!

Do these competitions frustrate the hell out of you? You have to be among the leaders in hours of golf watched and never really have success. I would've assumed you would be among the leaders every year.

I've never won, but I've contended in past years. But this year is pretty funny - I don't have a single point.
If it "meant" anything, yeah, I'd be frustrated, but I have a golf pool/league I pay more attention to, so this is kind of an afterthought (I still obviously try to do my best though.)
And there's so much variance involved that it's pretty easy to just shrug it off that way too.
